The Convention has proved to be a touchstone for UNICEF programmes, reinforcing an ethic that values every child and placing rights at the centre of all work. Together with the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, it transformed UNICEF to a rights-based organization. In the process, UNICEF worked with a widened network of partners not only to beat back child mortality and child diseases, but to address their root causes, effecting lasting improvements in country after country and ensuring the survival of millions of children who would have been otherwise lost.
